Re: [foxboro] Print Screen Script

Neil,
We use this as part of a script to call up a display and print it out.  The
script is run by crontab twice a day.


Good Luck



/usr/local/pref -<LBUG> DMCMD 'dmcmd msglin "Changing to the Efficiency
Display
 in 10 Seconds"'

sleep 5

/usr/local/pref -<LBUG> DMCMD 'dmcmd msglin "Changing to the Efficiency
Display 
 in 5 Seconds"'

sleep 5 

/usr/local/pref -<LBUG> DMCMD /usr/menus/d2/<file_name>

sleep 5

/usr/local/pref -<LBUG> DMCMD 'dmcmd psc'

Subject: [foxboro] Print Screen Script






We have a need to do Screen Prints for a lot of graphics to show a snapshot
of process realtime data.  Does any one have a script they would like to
share to automate this on a 51 series station?  I assume the script would
need to do the following:

1.  Utilize a text file that lists the pathname for each graphic  or
overlay to be printed.

2.  It probably needs to display the graphic on a designated AW/WP, wait
momentarily, do a Print Screen to designated printer, wait, then repeat the
process at a slow enough rate to avoid printer que problems.
